I'll be ruthless and remove every affected leaf then! Crypts are tough, they'll survive even if they end up with nothing but roots. Hope it hasn't spread any further... will see what I'm facing tomorrow, fingers crossed it's not another disaster, I need some good news not more bad tank stuff.
Excel wouldn't agree with my shrimp I dont think
That set up was for quite some time, but now I've upgraded to a 55g and fed all the affected plants to my apple snail
Excel is perfectly safe for shrimp, if used as directed. You would be using even less than the recommended dose.
I'd steer clear of Excel where livestock is concerned. Plant only tank, fine. As Byron says, "Do not use Flourish Excel. This is glutaraldehyde, a highly toxic disinfectant". I'm too lazy to find his other post where he talks about discussing the product with a technician at Seachem, and they couldn't confirm its safety with regards to fish.
